 # Frequently Asked Questions
 
-## Q: Why is virtual memory usage high?
-
-Consul makes use of [LMDB](http://symas.com/mdb/) internally for various data
-storage purposes. LMDB relies on using memory-mapping, a technique in which
-a sparse file is represented as a contiguous range of memory. Consul configures
-high limits for these file sizes and as a result relies on large chunks of
-virtual memory to be allocated. However, in practice, the limits are much larger
-than any realistic deployment of Consul would ever use, and the resident memory or
-physical memory used is much lower.

 ## Q: What is Checkpoint? / Does Consul call home?
